MANY people are under the delusion
that hard freezing destroys the vitality
OF germs. Recent experiments in the
East have demonstrated that this is
untrue. The experiments of DR..
Pruden, of New York, show that
bacilli live and flourish in ice-water.
In single pint of ice-water made
from melted ice he found on the aver
age, by actual count, about 500, 900 OF
bacteria of various kinds. 1t is Just
as we'll for people to know where their
ice is made, and for ice gatherers to
know that collecting ice from impure
water is dealing in death.
